" Rome wasn't built in a day ". In surface means, it's told Rome was a amazing city, and there are Colosseum, fountain, different kinds of church. Therefore, many people spend a lot of time and painstaking to built it. Now days, if we mention this proverb is means if you want do something well, do not be impatient; you should step by steps and spend time to do it. Nothing will done in a flash. In my culture, there are many sentences like this one: "You cannot build up your constitution on one mouthful"; "One meal won't make a fat man".
I have many life experiences match this proverb. For instance, about 1 years ago my friend suggest me to go gym, then I become a member of gym. At first, I went to gym everyday, and do a lot of exercise, it's tired. however, after about 3 weeks I go gym twice a week then once a week. Sometimes I even wasn't went once a week. One day I met my friend whose told me to go gym. She has built a perfect body now. I'm wonder about why I still didn't have a good shape. Then she told me, usually she go to gym five times a week and have a specific plan , even never miss one time. Thus, I get the reason. Because "Rome wasn't built in a day". Now, we are learning English. If we want speak like a native, we should have a plan and practice everyday instead of study hard at first then never speak anymore; otherwise it will like the body built.
Proverbs is often come from predecessors experiences. It always be confirmed in our life. If we use this experiences in work and study, life will be better and more easily.

Yes your friend is correct, it takes time and hard work for something you want to achieve in life. Therefore every one should first do the hard work and than think for the result, one cannot first think of result. As confidence is good but overconfidence always harm.
